Jared Goff Consistent In Week 7 Blowout

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff had a solid day in Week 7. He finished 18 of 24 for 202 yards with two touchdowns to go with two carries for four yards. Goff is a QB1 when the team gets into a shootout, but when the team thoroughly dominates as they did this week, it […]

Jordan Wilkins Runs Well In Week 7

Indianapolis Colts rookie running back Jordan Wilkins was effective in Week 7, but he remains nothing more than a stash in deep leagues.

Aqib Talib Out A While Longer

The Los Angeles Rams are set to be without All-Pro cornerback Aqib Talib (ankle) a while longer.

Marlon Mack Has Flex Appeal In Week 7

Greg Zuerlein Out In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein (groin) has been recovering from his injury since after Week 1.

Head […]

Marlon Mack Could Return In Week 6

Nyheim Hines Should Be Rostered In All PPR Leagues

Chester Rogers A Good Option In Week 6

The Indianapolis Colts throw a lot, and with wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest) dealing with an injury, Chester Rogers is a good waiver wire option in Week 6.

Brandin Cooks, Cooper Kupp In Concussion Protocol

Two of the top three Los Angeles Rams wide receivers entered the concussion protocol Sunday afternoon.
